If the latter, is there a chance that you get very long pathnames while descending into the dir, like, say, longer than 260 chars?

Netapp drives are a bit tricky. They already get some special handling in Cygwin, but that may be outdated. For a start, can you make sure you have the csih package installed and run $ /usr/lib/csih/getVolInfo /cygdrive/y Also, it would be interesting to see an strace of a failing command like above, e.g. $ strace -o du.strace du -sh /cygdrive/y/Some_Large_Directory If that works fine it's worthless, but if it fails as you mention above, please send the du.strace file as attachment to this list. Thanks, Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Maintainer cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat
